Flag Day. , ;/
The idea of Betting apart one day
each year for the special purpose of
honoring the American flag, is one that
deserves and will assuredly receive the
sanction of every patriot in our Repub­lic,
says Blue and Gray for July.
America is the most patriotic of na-tions,
and still it is not patriotic
enough. We are a busy-people, and in
the rush and hurry of trade we are too
apt to forget our more sacred duties.
After "mother" and "heaven" no
•words are so potent as "home" and
"country."
When the rising generation shall
have taken the reins of government,
with this love of the flag of our coun­try
deeply implanted in their very
souls, there will be no nation so rash as
to insult or even show discourtesy to
an American sailor or citizen when un-der
the folds of our national emblem ;
none to cry "jingo" when the rights of
. •; our people abroad are maintained by
whatever force may be required for the
purpose. And this we want to see.~
Good Work.
The arrest of the two thieves,Thomas
Hall and Edwin Veitch, on Sunday,
was a good piece of detective work on
the part of the South Norwalk police,
lo Chief Vollmer belongs the lion's
share of the credit for- their arrest, for
he it was that gained the first clue to
the guilty parties, but officers Glad-r
stone and Conley are also deserving of
great praise for the valuable assistance
they rendered their Chief in the suc­cessful
carrying out of his well laid
•plans.
For some months past South Nor­walk
has been terrorized by burglaries
that have been going on in the stores
of that city, and long and loud have
; been the complaints against the police
department. These croakers have not
stopped at fault finding but have ac­cused
the police of all sorts of short,
comings and neglect of duty, some go­ing
so far as to suggest that a change
be made in the force from the Chief
down to the lowest patrolman. That
'•i these accusations and grumblings were
without foundation the GAZETTE had
every reason to believe, and the arrest
of Hall and Yeitch and their subse­quent
confessions of guilt, should-set
. at rest all complaints of the citizens of
South Norwalk against the inactivity,
of their police, for they not only have
a shrewdtana competent Chief, but his
assistants, we believe, are the peers of
any policemen in the state.

Norwalk Burned July 11, 1779.
To-day being the anniversary of the
battle and burning, in 1779, of the
town of Norwalk, reminds that we
^aye not; throughout our borders, a
eingle set-up memorial mark or monu­ment
of that locally and historically
celebrated event. Maj.-Generals Tryon
and Garth, of the British army, were
not the sole heroes of that occasion*
iHere at "The Bridge," and upon or
near "The Green," Tryon spent several
hours in dislodging our little band of
Norwalk patriots. It speaks volumes
in praise of Norwalk bravery, that so
far as is actually known, not more than
three or four of our men were slain or
: wounded during the engegement, from
10 to 12 o'clock, in the rear of the old
i Eliphalet Lockwood house, (now the
; hpme of W. B. E. Lockwood, Esq.,)
: while Tryon'a summed up loss amounted
to a score or more killed and nearly one
hundred wounded. Tradition points to
the peaceful spot on the east side of
upper France street, where sleep four
or five of King George's soldiers, but
John Bich's tomb, and the grave of the
first son of the soil to yield his life, a
little to the east of the late Eli B. Ben­nett's
home, are unmarked. "Ere this,"
wrote, years ago, one of Norwalk's
genuine sons, "the event should have
bean commemorated by the erection of
. a monument to perpetuate the names
of those who fell on that day in the de-
• fence of our town and the cause of li­berty."
, The Nation has taken care of the
fame of Generals Parson and Wolcott;
: the town should see that Captains Rich-
' ards and Betts are unforgotten. The
i latter's sepulchre, close by that of his
; old slave, and five or six miles from
I this town, was visited a few weeks since,
? and not found in a condition deserving
I of its worthy occupant. The future
Norwalk Historical Society will have a
% wherein to labor.

Mrs. Knapp Stoned.
Officer June was called to the corner
of East avenue and the Westport road
on Monday, on complaint of Mrs. Fred
Knapp, who alleged that Annie Brown,
a domestic in the employ of Mr. E. S.
Adams, had first stoned her chickens
and then hurled a stone at her. To a
GAZETTE representative Mrs. Knapp
stated that she had lived at her present
home for five years and had never yet
called upon one of her neighbors, and
that she was a hard-working peaceable
woman and if her neighbors would let
her alone she would be all right. Mrs.
Knapp also told the reporter that she
had said nothing to the colored girl to
cause her to throw the stone. An eye
witness to the affair put a different
light on the fraeas, stating that Mrs,
Knapp had oalled the girl all sorts of
vile names, and that a row at the Knapp
house was of common occurrence. The
GAZETTE representative was also in­formed
that numerous complaints had
been made of the goings on at the
Kuapp's, and if half of what is report­ed
about the place be true the residents
of that neighborhood would do well to
call the attention of the police to the
matter, to-the end that an investigation
be made. Mrs. Knapp refused to swear
out a warrant against the colored girl
and no arrests were made.
It is reported that Mr. and Mrs.
Knapp had a misunderstanding at an
early hour this morning and that Mrs.
Knapp had trounced the head of the
house in true Corbett style.

Edward Brown and Henry Woods,
two Bridgeport colored men, fought in

One gash laid Brown's Head
open to the skull. It extended from
the top of his bead to the point of his
chin on the left side and cut the left
ear in two. Another gash laid open
Brown's right wrist severing all the
arteries, and another in the left side
laid bare four ribs. It is thought be
cannot recover. Woods fled and offi­cers
are in pursuit of him. The affray
was the result of jealousy.
—A New Idea.
The D. M. Read company have insti­tuted

There are many little vacation neces­saries
which their customers, who are
rusticating, forget to take with them,
and this progressive firm will be pleased
to forward, express paid, to any point
within a radius of fifty miles, all goods
which any of their customers may order
by mail, thus supplying any wants in
their line in an unusual and apprecia­tive
way. .
This in connection with their regular
Mail Order Department, is fast becom­ing
an important and prominent factor
in their rapidly increasing business.
A Cold-Water Man.
Mr. Arthur Hill is, or rather yester­day
evening was, a cold-water man in
the strictest, practical sense of the
term. He lost his balance on a dock
log at the lumber yard and plunged
down some ten to twelve feet into the
cold, briny and not over pure and pel­lucid
fluid. Fortunately there was water
and dock mud enough to break his fall
and Trill was soon fished out by the
lumbermen handing down a scantling
to which he clung with the most cheer­ful
alacrity and was hauled up on dry
land again. It took about half an
hour to fish out his hat, with the same
bit of timber, and meantime Hill had
been home and peeled himself and ap­peared
on the scene "clothed &nd in his
right mind," with all his best Sunday
garments on, and walked the yard for
the balance of the afternoon as grandly
as a Walking Delegate.
Chicapro's Sons of Connecticut.
There is a prospect that the Connec­ticut
state building at the world's fair
will become the property of the Sons
of Connecticut of Chicago after the
fair. It has been purchased by Mr. E.
St. John, formerly of this state, and it
is understood the purchase was made
for the society. Mr. St. John, who is
president of the association, is general
manager of the Chicago, St. Paul &
Pacific railroad. g|L
The plan is to take down the struct­ure,
re-errect it in some appropriate lo­cation,
and fit it up in a handsome man­ner.
1 The lower portion will be used
for a club and the upper rooms for the
janitor and his family. There is a con­siderable
colony of Connecticut people
in Chicago and it is believed that the.
club idea will prove an incentive to the
promotion of acquaintanceship and so-ciability
among them.
? MOTHER VICTIM.
An Unknown Man Killed at SoutA
, Norwalk.
His Identity Unknown.
Another victim was added Monday
night to the long list of poor fellows
who have met their death by the cars,
at South Norwalk. About 10:30 o'clock
as the "switcher" engine was switching
some freight cars just below the Con­solidated
road depot, a man who ap­peared
to be under the influence of
liquor, was seen on the track on to
which the freight cars were to be
switched. "Billy" Brown and another
brakeman on top of the freight car
yelled at him and tried to attract his
attention, but if he heard them he was
too bewildered to move. The rear car
struck him and knocked him down, and
the wheels passed over one of his legs
and feet. The train was stopped and
the man was picked up and taken into
the baggage room of the depot where
he expired in a very few minutes. No
one. seemed to know who he was
and at this writing his identity is
still unknown, although it is thought
that he may be from the Soldiers'
Home at Noroton. The man ap­peared
to be about 55 years of age, 5
feet 7 inches tall, and weighed about
150 pounds, had hazel eyes, full beard
of gray and black, hair also mixed
with gray, was partially bald, and
wore a soft felt hat. He had lost two
of his upper teeth on the left side. He
was dressed in a black cheviot coat and
vest, mixed gray outer shirt and gray
mixed underwear, and both outer and
under shirt were marked "Mc E. W."
with the figure 2 under the letters. His
drawers wero marked "G. L. E." with
the figure 3 under the letters. He also
wore brown mixed socks and heavy
brogan shoes. On the body was found
a polka dot, red bandana, and white
handkerchiefs, with red and blue bor­ders,
one pencil, a white bone comb,
a plug of tobacco, and a postage stamp
book on the cover of which was written
the numbers 956, 771, and 037. The
body was taken to Gregory's undertak­ing
rooms where it now lies, awaiting
identification.
Medical Examiner Burke telephoned
to the Soldiers' Home this morning to
see if the man came from that institu­tion,
and an officer of the home was to
have oome up on the 11.44 train, but
for some reason he did not appear, It
is probable that he will arrive later in
the day.
Owen and Anthony.
Saturday Owen Rice and Anthony
R^an were released from jail. On re­ceiving
their release they proceeded to
celebrate their liberty by filling up on
Bridgeport whiskey.
Just before midnight they entered a
saloon and proceeded to clean out the
place. They smashed several glasses
and were enjoying themselves hugely
when two officers entered the place and
placed the pair under arrest. They
fought desperately,but a free use of the
policemen's clubs persuaded them to
accompany the officers to the station.
In the city court they each pleaded
guilty to the charge of drunkenness, but
not guilty to the charges of breach of
peace, injury to property and resist­ance.
After hearing the testimony,
Judge Kane fined Ryan $4 and costs
and gave him 30 days in jail. Rice got
$4 and costs and 50 days in jail.

Michael E. Sheridan, of Bridgeport,

NICARAGUA'S" PRESIDENT HEftE:
General Sacaza Speaks of tlie Recent
' Revolutionary Disturbances.
SAN DIEGO, Cal., July 11.—Among the
passengers arriving at this port by the
Pacific mail steamer Colon was General
Roberto Sacaza, of Nicaragua who, in
company with his wife and two sous, is en
route to Chicago, Washington and New
York.
Sacaza in an interview stated that his
present visit to the United States is for
recreation and iu-struction
merely,
aud that with his
family he intends
to spend some time
at the World's fair.
With respect to the
revolution he said
that he had no
doubt that many
'incorrect impres*
sions had been
made up o n the
minds of Ameri­cans,
who doubtless
PRESIDENT SACAZA. in many cases re­garded
him as a would be dictator and a
tyrant of the first magnitude. He ascribes
the revolution not to personal enmity to­ward
himself, but to strong jealousy ex­isting
between the cities of Leon and
Granada. Having been formerly senator
from Leon people in Granada regarded
him as more friendly to that city than to
Granada after his election to the presi­dency
. He denies, however, that there
was deliberate revolution based upon
usurpation of power on his part or dissat­isfaction
with his policy.
The part which he took in the revolu­tion,
he says, neas taken merely for preser­vation
of good government. Hegives great
credit to Minister Baker, of the United
States. "I am still constitutional presi­dent
of Nicaragua," said he, "and have
left the chair only for the time occupied by
this visit, which will consume about five
months."
TO DEMAND A REHEARING.
Dr. Iiurtsell Will Appeal to Rome for
HIK Old Farisli.
NEW YORK, July 11.—It is understood in
well informed Catholic circles that Arch­bishop
Corrigan's refusal to restore Dr.
Burtsell to his old parish at the request of
Delegate Satolli will result in a demand
for a reopening of the case at the Roman
propaganda. Dr. Burtsell is confident of
success, but many are of a contrary opin­ion.
Dr. Burtsell was tried and con­demned
on charges springing from the
McGlynn troubles.
Dr. Burtsell hopes to convince the
judges in propaganda that these charges
have no foundation in law, because they
depended on the removal of Dr. McGlynn
from his parish without formal trial. Dr.
McGlynn was condemned without a hear­ing,
which is against the law of the
church, and was excommunicated without
a proper trial, to which he was entitled.
The ban put upon his Cooper Union lec­tures
depended for its force upon the legal­ity
of removal and excommunication. But
as these were illegal all consequent acts of
the authorities, dependent on them, were
illegal.
If this reasoning prevails at Rome not
only will Dr. Burtsell get back his parish,
but Dr. McGlynn will also return to St.
Stephens'. Archbishop Corrigan is said to
have no apprehension of these reverses.
Dr. McGlynn attended mass last Sun­day,
instead of officiating. It is not known
if the bishop of Brooklyn refused him per­mission
to say mass in public, but as this
is within a bishop's powers it is likely he
did. Dr. McGlynn cannot get permission
to say mass in public in any diocese of
New York or New Jersey.
Fearful Ravages of Yellow Fever.
PHILADELPHIA, July 11.—Captain Hol­land,
the only survivor of a crew of eight
of the brig Odorilla, the others dying of
yellow fever, says the misery and suffer­ing
from yellow fever at Santas are heart­rending.
Thousands have died. While
he lay there the death rate daily averaged
310. The patients died more rapidly than
ther bodies could be buried. Hundreds of
corpses were afloat in the river in all
stages of decomposition. When Captain
Holland sailed, April 22, the fever was on
the increase. He believes the places will
be depopulated in a short time.
Sherman on the "Sherman Law."
WORCESTER, Mass., July 11.—In a long
letter to Congressman Walker Senator
Sherman explains at length that the
"Sherman silver purchase act" was passed
to prevent free coinage of silver, and says:
"The silver we purchased is not worth as
much as we paid for it, but this loss is in­significant
compared to our gain by the
defeat of the free coinage of silver."

Flag Day. , ;/
The idea of Betting apart one day
each year for the special purpose of
honoring the American flag, is one that
deserves and will assuredly receive the
sanction of every patriot in our Repub­lic,
says Blue and Gray for July.
America is the most patriotic of na-tions,
and still it is not patriotic
enough. We are a busy-people, and in
the rush and hurry of trade we are too
apt to forget our more sacred duties.
After "mother" and "heaven" no
•words are so potent as "home" and
"country."
When the rising generation shall
have taken the reins of government,
with this love of the flag of our coun­try
deeply implanted in their very
souls, there will be no nation so rash as
to insult or even show discourtesy to
an American sailor or citizen when un-der
the folds of our national emblem ;
none to cry "jingo" when the rights of
. •; our people abroad are maintained by
whatever force may be required for the
purpose. And this we want to see.~
Good Work.
The arrest of the two thieves,Thomas
Hall and Edwin Veitch, on Sunday,
was a good piece of detective work on
the part of the South Norwalk police,
lo Chief Vollmer belongs the lion's
share of the credit for- their arrest, for
he it was that gained the first clue to
the guilty parties, but officers Glad-r
stone and Conley are also deserving of
great praise for the valuable assistance
they rendered their Chief in the suc­cessful
carrying out of his well laid
•plans.
For some months past South Nor­walk
has been terrorized by burglaries
that have been going on in the stores
of that city, and long and loud have
; been the complaints against the police
department. These croakers have not
stopped at fault finding but have ac­cused
the police of all sorts of short,
comings and neglect of duty, some go­ing
so far as to suggest that a change
be made in the force from the Chief
down to the lowest patrolman. That
'•i these accusations and grumblings were
without foundation the GAZETTE had
every reason to believe, and the arrest
of Hall and Yeitch and their subse­quent
confessions of guilt, should-set
. at rest all complaints of the citizens of
South Norwalk against the inactivity,
of their police, for they not only have
a shrewdtana competent Chief, but his
assistants, we believe, are the peers of
any policemen in the state.

Norwalk Burned July 11, 1779.
To-day being the anniversary of the
battle and burning, in 1779, of the
town of Norwalk, reminds that we
^aye not; throughout our borders, a
eingle set-up memorial mark or monu­ment
of that locally and historically
celebrated event. Maj.-Generals Tryon
and Garth, of the British army, were
not the sole heroes of that occasion*
iHere at "The Bridge," and upon or
near "The Green," Tryon spent several
hours in dislodging our little band of
Norwalk patriots. It speaks volumes
in praise of Norwalk bravery, that so
far as is actually known, not more than
three or four of our men were slain or
: wounded during the engegement, from
10 to 12 o'clock, in the rear of the old
i Eliphalet Lockwood house, (now the
; hpme of W. B. E. Lockwood, Esq.,)
: while Tryon'a summed up loss amounted
to a score or more killed and nearly one
hundred wounded. Tradition points to
the peaceful spot on the east side of
upper France street, where sleep four
or five of King George's soldiers, but
John Bich's tomb, and the grave of the
first son of the soil to yield his life, a
little to the east of the late Eli B. Ben­nett's
home, are unmarked. "Ere this,"
wrote, years ago, one of Norwalk's
genuine sons, "the event should have
bean commemorated by the erection of
. a monument to perpetuate the names
of those who fell on that day in the de-
• fence of our town and the cause of li­berty."
, The Nation has taken care of the
fame of Generals Parson and Wolcott;
: the town should see that Captains Rich-
' ards and Betts are unforgotten. The
i latter's sepulchre, close by that of his
; old slave, and five or six miles from
I this town, was visited a few weeks since,
? and not found in a condition deserving
I of its worthy occupant. The future
Norwalk Historical Society will have a
% wherein to labor.

Mrs. Knapp Stoned.
Officer June was called to the corner
of East avenue and the Westport road
on Monday, on complaint of Mrs. Fred
Knapp, who alleged that Annie Brown,
a domestic in the employ of Mr. E. S.
Adams, had first stoned her chickens
and then hurled a stone at her. To a
GAZETTE representative Mrs. Knapp
stated that she had lived at her present
home for five years and had never yet
called upon one of her neighbors, and
that she was a hard-working peaceable
woman and if her neighbors would let
her alone she would be all right. Mrs.
Knapp also told the reporter that she
had said nothing to the colored girl to
cause her to throw the stone. An eye
witness to the affair put a different
light on the fraeas, stating that Mrs,
Knapp had oalled the girl all sorts of
vile names, and that a row at the Knapp
house was of common occurrence. The
GAZETTE representative was also in­formed
that numerous complaints had
been made of the goings on at the
Kuapp's, and if half of what is report­ed
about the place be true the residents
of that neighborhood would do well to
call the attention of the police to the
matter, to-the end that an investigation
be made. Mrs. Knapp refused to swear
out a warrant against the colored girl
and no arrests were made.
It is reported that Mr. and Mrs.
Knapp had a misunderstanding at an
early hour this morning and that Mrs.
Knapp had trounced the head of the
house in true Corbett style.

NICARAGUA'S" PRESIDENT HEftE:
General Sacaza Speaks of tlie Recent
' Revolutionary Disturbances.
SAN DIEGO, Cal., July 11.—Among the
passengers arriving at this port by the
Pacific mail steamer Colon was General
Roberto Sacaza, of Nicaragua who, in
company with his wife and two sous, is en
route to Chicago, Washington and New
York.
Sacaza in an interview stated that his
present visit to the United States is for
recreation and iu-struction
merely,
aud that with his
family he intends
to spend some time
at the World's fair.
With respect to the
revolution he said
that he had no
doubt that many
'incorrect impres*
sions had been
made up o n the
minds of Ameri­cans,
who doubtless
PRESIDENT SACAZA. in many cases re­garded
him as a would be dictator and a
tyrant of the first magnitude. He ascribes
the revolution not to personal enmity to­ward
himself, but to strong jealousy ex­isting
between the cities of Leon and
Granada. Having been formerly senator
from Leon people in Granada regarded
him as more friendly to that city than to
Granada after his election to the presi­dency
. He denies, however, that there
was deliberate revolution based upon
usurpation of power on his part or dissat­isfaction
with his policy.
The part which he took in the revolu­tion,
he says, neas taken merely for preser­vation
of good government. Hegives great
credit to Minister Baker, of the United
States. "I am still constitutional presi­dent
of Nicaragua," said he, "and have
left the chair only for the time occupied by
this visit, which will consume about five
months."
TO DEMAND A REHEARING.
Dr. Iiurtsell Will Appeal to Rome for
HIK Old Farisli.
NEW YORK, July 11.—It is understood in
well informed Catholic circles that Arch­bishop
Corrigan's refusal to restore Dr.
Burtsell to his old parish at the request of
Delegate Satolli will result in a demand
for a reopening of the case at the Roman
propaganda. Dr. Burtsell is confident of
success, but many are of a contrary opin­ion.
Dr. Burtsell was tried and con­demned
on charges springing from the
McGlynn troubles.
Dr. Burtsell hopes to convince the
judges in propaganda that these charges
have no foundation in law, because they
depended on the removal of Dr. McGlynn
from his parish without formal trial. Dr.
McGlynn was condemned without a hear­ing,
which is against the law of the
church, and was excommunicated without
a proper trial, to which he was entitled.
The ban put upon his Cooper Union lec­tures
depended for its force upon the legal­ity
of removal and excommunication. But
as these were illegal all consequent acts of
the authorities, dependent on them, were
illegal.
If this reasoning prevails at Rome not
only will Dr. Burtsell get back his parish,
but Dr. McGlynn will also return to St.
Stephens'. Archbishop Corrigan is said to
have no apprehension of these reverses.
Dr. McGlynn attended mass last Sun­day,
instead of officiating. It is not known
if the bishop of Brooklyn refused him per­mission
to say mass in public, but as this
is within a bishop's powers it is likely he
did. Dr. McGlynn cannot get permission
to say mass in public in any diocese of
New York or New Jersey.
Fearful Ravages of Yellow Fever.
PHILADELPHIA, July 11.—Captain Hol­land,
the only survivor of a crew of eight
of the brig Odorilla, the others dying of
yellow fever, says the misery and suffer­ing
from yellow fever at Santas are heart­rending.
Thousands have died. While
he lay there the death rate daily averaged
310. The patients died more rapidly than
ther bodies could be buried. Hundreds of
corpses were afloat in the river in all
stages of decomposition. When Captain
Holland sailed, April 22, the fever was on
the increase. He believes the places will
be depopulated in a short time.
Sherman on the "Sherman Law."
WORCESTER, Mass., July 11.—In a long
letter to Congressman Walker Senator
Sherman explains at length that the
"Sherman silver purchase act" was passed
to prevent free coinage of silver, and says:
"The silver we purchased is not worth as
much as we paid for it, but this loss is in­significant
compared to our gain by the
defeat of the free coinage of silver."

A good story is told about a gentle-man
who lives in Brooklyn and crosses ^
at. Fulton ferry nearly every day. He is '
much persecuted by the bore who al- ^
ways accosts you on a ferryboat-in mid­stream
with the stereotyped question, . •?
"Ah! are you going across?" ;
The other day one of these demons f
hooked on to the Brooklyn man as.usual ";
and said: "Hello, old man I Going to-
York?"
"No, sir," he replied promptly. "I
am goipg to hft you on the nose."
And he -d amid the cheers of the
crowd.—Texas Sittings. ^
La Duse's Portrait.
A photograph of Eleanora Duse now
on exhibition attracts constant atten-;
tion. The picture is far removed both
in expression and costume from the or-: *
dinary actress. The hair, guiltless of
curl or bang, looks decidedly "tousled,"
a straight,- disheveled lock straying ; '
across the forehead. The face is neither
young nor beautiful and is ineffably #
sad. The dark, melancholy eyes look
wearily away from the beholder. Mme. ?
Duse wears a high black gown without
ornament.—Philadelphia Press.-. ;

An Expression For Slowness. |1|
A Washington youngster has su#eed- §|1
ed in adding to . the already numerous ||§
phrases that are used to emphasize an J||
impression of slowness. He was waiting |i||
for his sister to finish something onf|§
which she was engaged. After a time |||
his patience was exhausted, and he ex-1||
claimed: 1
"Won't you please hurry up? You|§f
are slower than a snail with the rheuma-tism."—
Washington Star. ' 1
Confirmed bachelors will do well to |||
read Dr. Benjamin Rush's definition of ||f
life without a wife, written not" long be- §if|
Core his death. "Celibacy," he said, "is 1
a pleasant breakfast, a tolerable dinner^
but a very bad supper." v :b;
There is a fire in a tenement. The ex- I
cited crowd throw the crockery and
glassware out of the window from the
fourth story; the mattresses are brought
down to the ground floor in their arms. i|^|
The most curious book in the world ^j§
was neither written nor printed. The pg|
letters in its pages were cut from blue §|§
tissue paper, which was afterward past-1|§
ed on cardboard.
Correspondence holds a double power, |g|f
inasmuch as the pen that can comfort ||||
and cheer and elevate may become the |gg:
weapon that, wounds and destroys. tggi:
